  After the last stand, Kag and Dragomir couldn’t wait to get started with something more - entertaining. As they walked the stalls the various scents of food often pulled Bullet away before she came back leaping over other attendees. 

“What is that holy-awful smell,” Dragomir paused and fake gagged to the rest of the group. Bullet took a big whiff, she kept quiet but Kag and Dragomir could see the mistake written all over her face. Kag barked a laugh and raised his head above the stalls to get a look at where they were headed.

“Looks to be an animal pen of some sort, lots of folks nippin’ at cattle and such.” He raised a brow and chuckled.

“I don’t want any part of some brain-dead cattle,” Dragomir started to turn around and Kag used his wing to push both of the vays back towards the animals.

“Fancy seeing you’ve already escaped your herd,” Kag smirked towards the black puller and pushed them both, “you are not getting out of this one quite that easily.” Dragomir groaned and Bullet, not needing any persuasion skipped her way off to the cattle fence.

“Wow!! Look at them, they’re so good at whatever this is!” Bullet hopped up on the fence and watched as a team of various built vayrons nipped at the heels of cattle and cornered them into pens. The crowd clapped and a puller and runner stepped onto the now calm ground.

“Folks, it sure has been a pleasure spending this evening with ya, our cattle are getting mighty tired though so there will only be one more round of this. I think we could make this a bit more entertaining though… how about a competition - our ranchers versus any of you green beans?” The crowd collectively quieted and murmured amongst themselves. Bullet who had been hopping in place practically flew off the fence.

“Me!! And my friends over here!” Dragomir grabbed her and held a paw over her mouth. 

“No, we’re fine though!” He whispered something to Bullet but she only giggled. Kag lifted his chin and gave a toothy smirk. He used his tail to flip the two right over the fence and into the pen.

As he was flipped over the fence, the only thoughts he had were 'fuck' and 'jerk you better join us. Both came out audibly and some nearby pups laughed at his language. He glared at the tyr who did eventually join them, but he took his sweet time and by then, the horn had already blared and the two vays were scrambling in the mud and oil. Kag's wings weren't gonna be much of an advantage either - the cows were slicked up with more of the grime and the wolf-marked vay had a suspicion that the concoction would make it difficult to stay airborne as well, weight or airflow, velocity- some science shit.

The male dove for a cow to land face first in the mud, causing more giggles from the female. He got the feeling he was just amusement for her today. Kag was faring a bit better, although his flight also startled the cattle even further. Dragomir watched as the mud was kicked up into the flying reo's face. Kag tried to wipe it off, only to get more grime on his head. Eventually, he had to shake his neck like he was killing some prey just to splash it away.

Clearly, Bullet was built for this. She was covered in as much mud and oil as the males, but her build was much more suited to the sort of task she was facing. She managed to twist and turn, and account for the slips and slides she encountered. Her biggest hangup was actually catching one of the bovines.

That's where the boys came in. Dragomir slid over to Kag and instructed him to hold his wings out. There was mud in the tyr's ears so it took a moment to convey, but he got the message without too much difficulty. The tyr was going to block them in, make the pen a bit smaller, and the puller was going to do what he did best. Brute strength. 

Bullet seemed to get the idea, and she started to herd the cattle towards the guys. This wasn't her normal line of work but hey, it wasn't too hard to spook an animal into running in a direction. Once a nice fat cow loped into view, bellowing the whole while, Kag cut off its escape, and Dragomir went for the kill.

Not literally. They weren't savages.

Letting the grime of the ground give him more speed, he barreled into the cow, taking her down with him and they landed in a heap. Kag grabbed some rope to loop around her neck, and Bullet coaxed her to her feet to parade her around, prancing like an excited child.

He loathed to admit it but that wasn't that bad. Still, he was eager to find something else, although they probably should find somewhere to wash up first.
